And many computer simulations said that this character has large influences on the network performance. So fractal or self-similar models are more suitable to describe the modern traffic.

Using this model, the upper bond of the cell loss rate and multiplexing gain of the multiplexer are gotten when there are N i.i.d. QSSP inputs. If the sources have different parameters, an efficient numerical algorithm to get, this bond is proposed. Simulations indicate that our analysis is correct and accurate.展开更多

文摘Dealing with the increase in data workloads and network complexity requires efficient selective manipulation of any channels in hybrid mode-/wavelength-division multiplexing(MDM/WDM)systems.A reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer(ROADM)using special modal field redistribution is proposed and demonstrated to enable the selective access of any mode-/wavelength-channels.With the assistance of the subwavelength grating structures,the launched modes are redistributed to be the supermodes localized at different regions of the multimode bus waveguide.Microring resonators are placed at the corresponding side of the bus waveguide to have specific evanescent coupling of the redistributed supermodes,so that any mode-/wavelength-channel can be added/dropped by thermally tuning the resonant wavelength.As an example,a ROADM for the case with three mode-channels is designed with low excess losses of<0.6,0.7,and 1.3 dB as well as low cross talks of<−26.3,−28.5,and−39.3 dB for the TE0,TE1,and TE2 modes,respectively,around the central wavelength of 1550 nm.The data transmission of 30 Gbps∕channel is also demonstrated successfully.The present ROADM provides a promising route for data switching/routing in hybrid MDM/WDM systems.
文摘This paper proves that a synchronous demultiplexer has the same logic function as a synchronous multiplexer. A new approach is proposed to implement synchronous demultiplexers in high-speed ISDN switching networks. A synchronous demultiplexer is designed utilizing the same structure as a synchronous shuffle multiplexer. Both the theoretical analysis and experimental results show that for the same capacity, the new method is more tolerant of signal delay variation, so a very high-speed synchronous demultiplexer can be designed with the larger capacity required in large capacity synchronous switching networks.
文摘A decomposition approach of the combinational functions is discussed. A design method, by which the minimization or near minimization of two-level combinational network can be obtained, is presented for a combinational function realized by using multiplexer universal logic modules. Using the method, the automated synthesis of the combinational functions can be accomplished on a computer.
文摘We report on an eight-channel reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer based on cascaded microring resonators with a high tuning power consumption and a compact footprint. Microheaters are fabricated on top of the microring resonators and can be modulated using the thermo-optic effect to achieve the reconfigurable functionality of the device. We demonstrate the reconfigurable add-drop multiplexing functionality for channel spacings of 1 O0 GHz and 50 GHz, with the centre wavelengths of the channels aligned to International Telecommunication Union grid specifications. The crosstalk for channel spacings of 100 GHz and 50 GHz are less than -22.5 dB and -15.5 dB, respectively. The average tuning efficiency is about 4.5 mW/nm, and the response speed is about 13.0 kHz.

At a single supply voltage of 1.8 V, the total power consumption is 112 mW with an input sensitivity of less than 50 mV and an output single-ended swing of above 300 mV. The measurement results show that the IC can work reliably at any input data rate between 1.8 and 2.6 Gb/s with no need for external components, reference clock, or phase alignment between data and clock. It can be used in a parallel optic-fiber data interconnecting system.
